Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The enthalpy of fusion of methanolhas to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The amount of energy in the form of heat that is absorbed by the one mole of solid to transform into liquid is referred to as the enthalpy of fusion. This is also referred as latent heat of fusion. The enthalpy of fusion is represented by the symbol
(b)
Interpretation:
The enthalpy of vaporization of benzene at
Concept Introduction:
The amount of energy in the form of heat that is absorbed by the one mole of liquid to transform into a gas is referred to as the enthalpy of vaporization. This is also known as latent heat of vaporization. The enthalpy of vaporization is represented by the symbol

Chemical Principles: The Quest for Insight
- The enthalpy change when 1 mol methane (CH4) is burned is 890 kJ. It takes 44.0 kJ to vaporize 1 mol water. What mass of methane must be burned to provide the heat needed to vaporize 1.00 g water?arrow_forwardThe thermochemical equation for the burning of methane, the main component of natural gas, is CH4(g)+2O2(g)CO2(g)+2H2O(l)H=890kJ (a) Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? (b) What quantities of reactants and products are assumed if H = 890 kJ? (c) What is the enthalpy change when 1.00 g methane burns in an excess of oxygen?arrow_forwardThe enthalpy of combustion of diamond is -395.4 kJ/mol.

- One step in the manufacturing of sulfuric acid is the conversion of SO2(g) to SO3(g). The thermochemical equation for this process is SO2(g)+12O2(g)SO3(g)H=98.9kJ The second step combines the SO3 with H2O to make H2SO4. (a) Calculate the enthalpy change that accompanies the reaction to make 1.00 kg SO3(g). (b) Is heat absorbed or released in this process?arrow_forwardIn a coffee-cup calorimeter, 150.0 mL of 0.50 M HCI is added to 50.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH to make 200.0 g solution at an initial temperature of 48.2C. If the enthalpy of neutralization for the reaction between a strong acid and a strong base is 56 kJ/mol, calculate the final temperature of the calorimeter contents. Assume the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.184 J/g C and assume no heat Joss to the surroundings.arrow_forwardWhen one mol of KOH is neutralized by sulfuric acid, q=56 kJ. (This is called the heat of neutralization.) At 23.7C, 25.0 mL of 0.475 M H2SO4 is neutralized by 0.613 M KOH in a coffee-cup calorimeter. Assume that the specific heat of all solutions is 4.18J/gC, that the density of all solutions is 1.00 g/mL, and that volumes are additive. (a) How many mL of KOH is required to neutralize H2SO4? (b) What is the final temperature of the solution?arrow_forward
